Chapter 14: The Vortex

The straight-line distance from Moshi Village to Sanglin County is not far, but across a small hill, the detour is too far, the villagers of several nearby villages for convenience, they have jumped out of a road in the mountain bag, although it is a mountain road, but there are more people walking, the road is flat, and it is not difficult to walk.

Unexpectedly, a few years ago, there was news that there were big insects on the mountain road, at first some people did not believe in evil, in order to save time or did not want to take a long detour, but after the inexplicable disappearance of a few people, the villagers also believed, after that, no one walked on this mountain road.

As early as when the rumors came out, Wei Feng had used the rain perception to probe, and there were indeed tigers, and for ordinary villagers, encountering such a top predator in the mountains and forests was basically lifeless.

Wei Feng stood at the fork in the road, in front of him was the long road that the villagers had often detoured in recent years, and the other was the mountain road that occasionally people ventured through.

Closing his eyes is to help him better focus on the perception of rain, he is not yet able to accurately perceive in the case of distraction, it is better to be cautious for the sake of his own life.

"Let's go, you can take a shortcut today."

"Woo~"

Wei Feng greeted the blue dog and walked towards the mountain road.

In his perception, not to mention tigers, there are no slightly larger predators, which is not common, indicating that today is more lucky.

After a fine investigation, Wei Feng could open his perception again after a while, and he could just do a rough scan.

Today there is no wind, and there is no rustle of leaves in the wind, which is extraordinarily quiet.

After walking for a while, the strange feeling in Wei Feng's heart became stronger and stronger, and he always felt that something was wrong, and today's mountains and forests seemed exceptionally quiet.

Enduring the strange feeling and walking forward for a while, Wei Feng's brows gradually twisted together, and he had a bad feeling that something was going on.

"Grey dog, help me guard the surroundings." He said in a deep voice.

"Whew"

The grey dog approached Wei Feng's side and whispered, it didn't know what was going on, but there must be a reason why Wei Feng kept him on guard.

Today's mountain road was too quiet, Wei Feng thought to himself, it could not be ruled out that it was because of this that he had aroused his subconscious alertness, and he still decided to investigate it carefully.

Suddenly a drizzle began to fall on this small hill, and at first the range of the rain was within a radius of Wei Feng's two miles, and then gradually spread outward, and farther and farther away, until it expanded to the extreme distance that he could now perceive, a radius of fifteen miles.

"Huh?"

The result of the exploration was nothing, no, it could not be regarded as nothing, and it could be clearly felt that there were many fewer signs of animal activity in the vicinity, except for some small animals such as mountain mice and hares, there was not a single slightly larger predator, and even foxes and lynxes, which often haunt the mountains and forests, were nowhere to be seen.

Normally, when there are overlord-level animals such as tigers and bears, other predators will retreat, but strangely, Wei Feng did not find them either.

Wei Feng, who didn't believe in evil, sat directly against the tree, found a position for him to relax, closed his eyes again and scanned again, this time he would be engrossed.

The hard work paid off, and this time he finally found an anomaly, three miles west of here, there was a small area that he couldn't even perceive, and the rain didn't give back any information about that area.

Since this had never happened before, he had no experience, so he didn't notice anything unusual in the place when he scanned it for the first time.

This is the first time that rain does not give back information, just like a phalanx of soldiers standing together, as long as they do not report the number, it will be difficult to find out if there are fewer people for a while and a half.

He slowly opened his eyes, thought for a while, and saw that the grey dog was also looking at him, and made up his mind to go over there and explore.

"Let's go to the west direction, it may be dangerous, so we have to be careful." He stroked the dog's head and whispered in his ear.

"Woo~" Canggou also whispered in response.

Wei Feng took out the short knife from his bag, which was a tool used to open the way when walking in the mountains and forests, and the villagers on the mountain would basically have it on hand.

After being strengthened by attributes, Wei Feng was no longer what he used to be, and it only took less than two quarters of an hour to arrive on the Sili Mountain Road, but the scene in front of him made Wei Feng a little surprised.

I saw that in front of me was an energy vortex floating in mid-air, the lines of the vortex were gray-white, and it was flowing slowly, the overall size was two or three meters, floating more than ten centimeters above the ground.

"Is this ...... A gateway to another world? Or maybe it's a portal? Wei Feng muttered, it was hard not to think of the things in his previous life that only appeared in literary and artistic works.

"Huh?"

The blue dog curiously circled the whirlpool several times, and it was this shape from any direction.

"You stand back a bit."

Beckoning the dog to stay away, Wei Feng picked up a stone from the ground and threw it inward with all his strength.

The stone was vigorously thrown by Wei Feng, and the moment it touched the vortex, it disappeared directly, without stirring up a trace of waves or making a sound.

He threw in a few more stones in the same way, and waited quietly, five, ten, twenty seconds passed, and there was still no response.

Just as Wei Feng was hesitating to stretch out his hand to test it, an ugly human suddenly came out of the center of the whirlpool, and at the same time, there was a roar, and then, a man with black gas visible to the naked eye rushed out of the whirlpool, waving his palm and preparing to grab Wei Feng.

Wei Feng reacted very quickly, the short knife was thrown casually, and a bow and arrow made of purple shirt wood about one meter and a half long suddenly appeared in his empty hands, and at the same time, a leather quiver appeared behind him.

A sense of familiarity from his soul made him almost instinctively pull out a feather arrow from the quiver, quickly put it on the bowstring, held the feather with three fingers, and the string pulled a foot before suddenly releasing it.

The arrow whizzed away from the bowstring and shot at the man who had burst out.

"Snort"

The sharp arrow plunged directly into the man's right eye, knocking him to the ground with great force, and then his limbs twitched twice and stopped moving.

[Player "Wei Feng" has killed "Maserk Villager" and gained 30 experience]

A hint rushed into Wei Feng's mind, but he didn't have time to savor it, because two more roars came from the whirlpool.

Before he had time to think about it, Wei Feng opened his bow and arrows again, and shot at close range twice in a row, knocking down the two people who were rushing towards him and Canggou respectively, and then the same two prompts came.

But Wei Feng's first reaction was not to try to analyze the situation in front of him, but shouted loudly at Canggou: "Canggou, come here, you have to be calm, I can handle it, you must not be impulsive." ”

"Woo~"

When the dog heard Wei Feng's shout, he immediately put away his teeth and grinned, and his calves quickly moved towards him.

Seeing that it was still this size, Wei Feng breathed a sigh of relief and returned his attention to the whirlpool, beware of anything rushing out.

When the grey dog ran to his feet, Wei Feng waited for more than a minute, and did not see any movement on the whirlpool side again, before exhaling and putting down the longbow that had been raised flat.

Touching the well-behaved dog, he still had palpitations, if the dog overreacted just now, it would not be good like that night.
